Brotherhood's Annual Thanksgiving Drive
Would you like to become a shiva minyan leader?
The congregation relies on a dedicated corps of volunteers who lead shiva minyanim in the homes of bereaved congregants when our clergy are unavailable. Congregants who might be interested in serving the congregation as shiva minyan leaders need only a light reading knowledge of Hebrew, along with a caring heart and the desire to perform a mitzvah.
Congregants who might be interested in becoming leaders, as well as experienced shiva minyan leaders who would like a refresher class, are invited to attend a training/orientation session conducted by Rabbi Leib on Thursday, October 26 at 5:30p.m. Everyone will be guided through the prayer booklet in order to become comfortable using it.
To volunteer, please contact Jackie Lehner, 215-886-8000 Ext:148
